Lisa Caserta is a name you may have never heard before. She was notorious mobster Henry Hill’s girlfriend – the dude from Goodfellas who passed away at age 69 yesterday. After about twenty years together it’s said that Caserta and Hill were ready to finally tie the knot and she was also at his side when died.
Lisa, of Italian-American descent, shared a Malibu home with Hill (who was portrayed by Ray Liotta in the famed Martin Scorsese film, Goodfellas) and regards herself as somewhat of a “mob historian”. She has given numerous interviews regarding old mob life and interestingly, her last name is the same as a town in southern Italy that is famous for its mobsters.
Her official job description on an old LinkedIn profile listed her as, “Event Planner/Producer/Manage HenryHill, Goodfella” She has immersed herself in the old mafia ways and has made re-staging gangster events, and conjuring up visions of those cheesy staged shootouts for tourists in old west towns, a side business. On a slightly more practical side, Caserta owns a dealership called Malibu Cars that specializes in vintage and muscle cars from Italy.
I have to wonder why any woman would choose to spend her life with a man who admitted to committing such heinous acts of violence. What do you think it is that draws women like Caserta in and keeps them so loyal to a guy like Hill? Let us know your thoughts and opinions in the comments section below.
